Eli's First Birthday

The last night in Mexico we celebrated Eli's birthday even though it was two days early. He was a little tired but still had fun with it.

 

At first he didn't know what we wanted him to do with this piece of cake sitting in front of him. Then I gave him a fork and he dug right in.

 

 

 

I think he ate a little but he mostly had a great time throwing it everywhere. He really likes throwing things right now. Looks like Daddy had a great time too!

 

The rest of us enjoyed an awesome fudge marble cake that Grandma made. I even got to blow out two books of matches stuck on top of my cake since my b-day was the next morning.

 

We did present time the next morning since Eli was pretty tired after the cake fun.

 

Hooray! Summer shirts from Grandma, plus shorts, swim trunks and sand trucks.

 

Next present, a fun stuffed Curious George from Mormor and shoes from Auntie Kirsten.

 

 

I am pretty sure he got some other stuff but my brain isn't working right now so we will call it good.
